Why are some picture files img and some pict?

New to this and trying to learn.. looking at my images in iphoto.. I see some are img and some are pict.
1) Should they be one or the other?
2) How would I have files of different types when I import the same way and from the same camera?
3) Lastly.. some small images (or thumnails) show the image.. some only show as sort of a document with JPEG on it. Why and can I get these to show the image?
Thank you for now.. much more to come I'm sure..

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
1 - Where are you seeing these extensions?
2 - What camera are you using and are you shooting RAW?
3 - Again, where are you seeing these icons? Are you seeing both in the same folder or in different folders (assuming you're viewing in the Finder)? Make sure that in the Finder's View->Show View Options menu window the checkbox to show icon preview is checked for all folders.
Do you Twango?

  • Why are my photoshop files distorted and not the tifs?

    Hi,
    I've been importing tifs and photoshop files into my FCE project, and here's my problem. When I view the .psd file in my canvas viewer the still is squeezed and does not fill the entire frame with white background above and below the still. I then import the same file but resaved as a tif and it appears in the canvas frame in the correct aspect ratio. What is going on? (The image properties are 1920x1080 aspect ratio: square) This happens with all the .psd files that are imported into my FCE project. All imported tifs appear correctly.
    Other info: I have started with a baseline photoshop template that is 1920x1080, aspect ratio: square. I saved the images either as a .psd file with one layer or tif with one layer. The reason for the .psd file is that I need to have some areas of transparency in my FCE project (I have overlays). Which leads to another question: If I need transparency within the still in FCE, can I save the file as a tif with "save transparency" box ticked on?
    Thanks for any info!

    when saving as a png should interlaced be set to none?
    Also regarding the tif images...I had been saving them, as a copy and under tiff options:
    image compression: none
    pixel order: interleaved
    layer compression: discard layers and save a copy
    I assumed that this tiff file would be one layer. Am I incorrect?
    And I did a test save with "save transparency" ticked on and imported the image into FCE. It appears that the transparency is there when I view the still in the canvas window. Can I do it this way? Are there disadvantages/advantages to using png files rather than tiffs?
    Thanks!

  • Why are profile pictures of friends and family not displaying in my facebook anymore

    Something has happened to the display of friends and family profile pictures when they post. It is just written text and I cannot get their picture to display in conjunction with post as it was before.

    See [[Images or animations do not show]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.

  • Why are my pictures of cards and dominoes so small all of a sudden?

    All of a sudden when I go to play card games on yahoo, the pictures of the cards are so small I can hardly see them. Also, when I go to play dominoes in yahoo, I have to click on the option window and check small because it won't load otherwise.

  • Some of my songs from iTunes are AAC (m4a not protected) and some are AAC (m4p Protected).  Why is this???

    Some of my songs from iTunes are AAC (m4a not protected) and some are AAC (m4p Protected).  Why is this???
    Any insights would be much appreciated.

    Because you purchased some of the songs when they were sold as DRM ( protected ) - pre itunes plus, and you bought some of the songs when they were sold as non-drm - itunes plus.
    You can check quick links in the itunes store to see if you have itunes plus upgrades available for purchases.

  • Why are some text messages blue and some green

    Why are some text messages blue and some green?

    Blue text messages are iMessages (with other iOS and Mac users with iMessage enabled).
    Green are regular SMS messages to non-iPhone users and iPhone users with iMessage not enabled.

  • I received a gift card and when I redeemed it an error message said that I had some itunes files missing and that I needed to reinstall itunes.  Will I still have all my credits when I download itunes?

    I received an online gift card for Father's Day.  When I tried to redeem the gift then I received a error message saying I had some itune files missing and I needed to reinstall/download itunes.  Will I still have my previous purchase credits after downloading and reistalling itunes? 

    You will, because the credited funds are on your iTunes account, not the application. When you reinstall iTunes just configure it with your old iTunes account and your credits will be there waiting for you.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How to explain.  OK 1st all photos are visible in my iPhoto library; however, some are stored on hard drive and some are stored on external.  All can be viewed in itunes, but none on the external will sync to my iPad.  What's up with that.

    How to explain.  OK 1st all photos are visible in my iPhoto library; however, some are stored on hard drive and some are stored on external.  All can be marked or unmarked in itunes, but none of the photos stored on the external drive will sync to my iPad.  Anybody know what's up with that?

    What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization.  With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options.  If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast.  I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
    What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why?  How is this making it a better program?  I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was).  But to not give users the option to delete that list?  It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating.  I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature.  It smacks of rank incompetence.
    What improvement were they trying to make here anyway?  There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions.  Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
    And reverting to a previous version is no solution.  I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

  • I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all

    I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all. How come?

    If you're exporting a project then you'll only get the images in that project. Also if any of the masters are referenced then you won't get those masters unless you check Consolidate masters into exported library
    It might be best if you started from the beginning and explained what it is your are trying to do and how you're going about doing it. Also a description of you're hardware/software setup would be helpful.

  • I recently transferred my ITunes library to an external hard drive.  I made sure to copy all the data from the saved location.  After the transfer I noticed that a lot of albums are missing the first song and some recently purchased albums are missing.

    I recently transferred my ITunes library to an external hard drive.  I made sure to copy all the data from the saved location.  After the transfer I noticed that a lot of albums are missing the first song and some recently purchased albums are missing.  Is there any way to recover the data?  Thanks for any help.

    I may have found an answer here:
    http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive
    They only thing I can assume is that my external hard drive was slow to start and iTunes defaulted to its old directory (see the last paragraph at the link above). However, once my external was recognized shouldn't everything have fixed itself?

  • At UC platform i can see some applications are installed on Windows server and some directly to VMWare. Pls explain?

    At UC platform i can see some applications are installed on Windows server and some directly to VMWare. Pls explain?

    Pretty much all newer versions of UC applications have started supporting virtualization so they can be installed on the VMware. 
    Have a look at dockwiki for virtualization supported apps:
    http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Unified_Communications_Virtualization_Supported_Applications
    Some applications like CUCM version 4 were windows based previously but going ahead with version 5, 6 onwards the OS has been changed to Linux Operating system.
    Let me know if you need any more information.

  • Why are my itunes-synced songs and pictures are incomplete (corrupted) when transfered to my iPhone? E.g. songs start from somewhere in the middle and glitch continiously.

    Why are my itunes-synced songs and pictures are incomplete (corrupted) when transfered to my iPhone? E.g. songs start from somewhere in the middle and glitch continiously. This is a big problem which means all my windows -> iphone pictures are half black or glitched on the iphone. Also my songs are completely glitched. I have tried resyncing and different USB-ports.

    Same problem on Iphone 4s AND windows 7.  Really annoying that I can't have any music on my brand NEW device.

  • Why are there so many apps and wearable tech out there that specifically focuses on losing weight?

    I'm under weight and would really like to see some apps for people like me who want to gain about 30 lbs!

    Why are there so many apps and wearable tech out there that specifically focuses on losing weight?
    Because there's a 35x bigger market for it.
    Percent of adults   age 20 years and over who are overweight, including  obesity: 69.2% (2009-2010) - http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/overwt.htm

    I suggest you type
